Divorced woman with child travels through time
Chapter 468 Wave after wave
Just as Qi Siliu could no longer hold on and let go, the crossbow shot out and struck the Japanese soldier squarely in the chest.
"Uh..." In an instant, the Japanese man slowly collapsed to the ground, and then fell silent.
"Hehe, you little brat?" Qi Siliu, who was also on the verge of death, curled his lips and looked at the child, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
"What's wrong with being a kid? My dad's an official too, hmph!" The little boy tossed his head arrogantly, puffing out his chest, looking quite haughty.
Qi Siliu, panting heavily, said, "Old folks, you should go. Don't worry about me. I can't leave. It's not safe for you to stay here."
"How can that be?" The old man was in a dilemma. He had just saved the grandfather and grandson, and it wouldn't be right for him to just abandon them like this.
"We won't abandon you, I'll protect you." The little child looked at him, squatted down next to him and said, "You're like my dad, but he's fighting the Japanese in the city now, and I'm going to fight the Japanese outside!"
Perhaps because he had just been hit by an arrow, he was now extremely confident.
"Snap!" A crisp sound of bamboo breaking echoed through the bamboo forest.
Qi Siliu tensed instantly. "Someone's coming! Let's go!"
The old man glanced at his motionless grandson, gritted his teeth, stamped his foot, immediately went forward to close the door, hid behind it, and said to his grandson, "You hide under the bed and aim. There aren't many footsteps coming, so make sure you aim accurately. It's all up to you!"
The little boy nodded emphatically, and then gently patted Qi Siliu, who was lying on the ground, saying, "Don't worry, brother, I will protect you!"
Qi Siliu gave a bleak smile and called out to the child who was about to run away, "Pick up my dagger and give it to me first."
"Okay!" the child obediently agreed, quickly bypassed the Japanese man, picked up the dagger and put it back in his hand, then crawled under the bed and aimed the crossbow at the door.
Inspired, the old man put down his axe, picked up the long knife from the ground, and continued to squat in front of the door.
The sounds grew closer, and the old man became increasingly nervous. What should he do? It sounded like there were more than two people. He regretted not running away.
"Squeak!" Another sound of the door opening, and a figure slowly walked in.
"Ah! Take this!" the old man shouted and swung the knife down.
"Clang!" The red figure dodged and blocked his sword with his own.
At the same time, the figure behind him also used a knife to cut down the flying crossbow with a "ding".
The old man was about to chop again, but was stopped by someone saying, "Grandpa, don't be afraid!"
Only then did he realize that they were Song soldiers.
Qi Siliu, who was on the ground, breathed a sigh of relief as soon as the man entered. Before he could even utter a sound, the grandfather and grandson had already made their move. As expected, General Wang's words were still effective. It's a good thing that the whole nation is a soldier; they know how to resist.
"Oh, oh." The old man scratched his head sheepishly. "You've come! Perfect timing! I rescued someone yesterday, he must be one of your soldiers. He's injured, please help him!"
As he spoke, the last figure had already swept past him like the wind.
"Brother? You're from the Qi Battalion?" Lin Shuisheng had already been promoted to captain, so he naturally knew about the Qi Battalion. He brought his men out this time because his home was by the sea, and he was very worried.
Qi Siliu nodded slightly, then instantly fainted.
"You two watch over him, I'll re-bandage him." Lin Shuisheng gently lifted him onto the bed, gave instructions to his men, and then used a knife to cut open his clothes. He took out a small cloth bag from his own bag, inside which was a small bottle of strong liquor, and poured it directly onto Qi Siliu's wound, since he had already passed out anyway.
After pouring the wine, she pulled a wad of clean white cotton from the bottle and carefully wiped the wound. Then she took out a large wad of clean cotton from her small bag and pressed it onto the wound, before wrapping it with a white cloth.
After doing all this, give him two antidote pills.
Lin Shuisheng slumped on the edge of the bed. He was exhausted from the long escape. He had originally brought a team to gather intelligence, but the Japanese came so quickly and were so numerous and powerful. He had only a little over a hundred men when they encountered large groups of Japanese as soon as they left the city. If they were to fight them head-on, his small number of men would definitely not be enough. He immediately ordered his men to break up into smaller groups and hide in the villages, where they could also help the people.
Moreover, with so many Japanese attacking, supplies are a problem. The main issue is that this is Huian, which is close to Quanzhou. He heard that General Wang has 50,000 elite troops there, and they will definitely come to support him. He is very confident that the Japanese won't last more than a few days.
There were five of them in his group. He was bringing up the rear, two of them were squatting in the woods, and the remaining two guards had dragged the Japanese corpses aside and were playing with a child.
While waiting, Lin Shuisheng chatted with the old man, asking, "How did you get here, sir? And how did you save him?"
The old man, holding an axe in one hand and a long knife in the other, recounted in detail what had happened to him the day before.
Lin Shuisheng had a rough idea of what was going on, but he definitely had to save this brother from the Qi Battalion. He was too badly injured to move, and the rest of them had brought several days' worth of rations. They could use this place to hold out for a few days and then figure things out later.
"Brother Lin!" A soldier ran in; someone had arrived.
"Alert!" Lin Shuisheng immediately ordered, "You two stay inside and protect them!"
After saying that, he rushed out.
As Lin Shuisheng tiptoed to the edge of the bamboo grove, he saw Shen Guan, who was keeping watch, come over. "Brother Lin, I estimate there are more than a dozen Japanese soldiers chasing a family. They're about to enter the woods!"
"Alright, spread out! Shoot them down with hidden arrows first, then make your move after the villagers have passed!"
"Yes!"
Lin Shuisheng and Shen Jian each took one side, forming a pincer movement with Shen Qing who was traveling with them. Using some unknown method, they quietly climbed up to the top of the bamboo. The bamboo leaves were so dense that they couldn't be seen at all.
Soon, a family of five, wounded and struggling, were seen fleeing in disarray through the forest. Judging from their attire, their clothes and jewelry were quite luxurious, no wonder the Japanese had their eyes on them.
Lin Shuisheng and his companions watched from above. As soon as the group entered the circle, the three of them began to fire arrows from a distance. The arrows were short and each one hit its mark. None of the dozen or so Japanese soldiers had a bow and arrow, and they began to panic and dodge.
Taking advantage of this opening, Lin Shuisheng leaped back and forth among the bamboo shoots, managing to kill three people. The crossbow itself only had five short arrows, and the Shen brothers were no less capable, killing five people in total.
The Japanese dared not come in again, but they were unwilling to let the fat meat that was about to escape, so they hid in the bushes with their knives raised and cursed wildly.
"Go! Get down! Take them down!" Having gained the upper hand, and with only a small number of people, Lin Shuisheng was naturally not afraid. Using the resilience of the bamboo, he lightly jumped and landed smoothly on the ground.
The bamboo swayed in the wind, straightening its body and creating a rustling sound.
The Shen brothers did the same, forming a triangle with the three of them. "Clang!" At the same time, they drew their swords and slashed at the Japanese!
